In 2023, fossil energy gross inland consumption in the UK was approximately 5.6600 million terajoules. From 2024 onwards, there is a clear downward trend in the forecast values: by 2028, consumption is expected to decline to 5.0641 million terajoules. This represents a consistent year-on-year reduction. Yearly decrements suggest a declining trajectory, highlighting an average annual decrease. Notably, the Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over the five-year period shows a steady decline in fossil energy consumption.
Future trends to watch for include increased reliance on renewable energy sources, government policy shifts towards environmental sustainability, and technological advancements that could further affect fossil energy demand. Tracking these dynamics is essential for understanding long-term energy consumption patterns in the UK.
